No Binding. Condition: Fine. 2nd Edition. Very detailed chromo-lithographs by Frederick Crocker ca. 1970s. Information as provided by the family: "Trajes de Guatemala reprinted in two portfolios in 1976 by Byron Zadik y Cia. from the original plates dating to 1952. Images taken from watercolors by Frederick (Pat) Crocker painted in 1940. Tomo II includes Santa Maria Chiquimula, San Pedro San Marcos, San Juan Sacatepequez, Palin, Nebaj and Chichicastenango. . . Pat traveled to Guatemala and was immediately and deeply compelled by the "land of eternal Spring," and particularly by the native costumes and the colonial architecture. In Guatemala City Pat met Tocsika Townley Roach who had lived in Guatemala since 1917. She had opened the first textile shop in the city and had, over the years, assembled a fine collection of trajes. Recognizing Pat's talent as an artist, Mrs. Roach convinced him to find models to wear the costumes and to paint a series of watercolors that were intended not so much as art, but as a record. The Roach Collection was eventually purchased by the United Fruit Company and donated to the National Museum in Guatemala City. In 1943 the watercolors were exhibited in the Brooklyn Museum, and in 1948 hung at the Cotton Carnival Museum in Memphis, Tennessee. The paintings were not for sale but the many inquiries led to the lithograph reproduction in two folios of six designs printed by Byron Zadik S.A. of Guatemala City. The first edition appeared in 1953 and the second, shown here, in 1976. High artistic and ethnographic value." These fine quality colored lithographs were printed by Lithografia Byron Zadik in Guatemala City. They were reproduced from original watercolors by Frederick ("Pat") Crocker, Jr., depicting traditional Guatemalan costume of the period 1945-1960. This set includes all six of the costume prints plus a full-size cover sheet detailing the work, all included in a printed color portfolio. Obtained from the family, this set is in FINE as New condition. Size: sheet size 13.3 x 17.3 inches Condition: Excellent, clean and flat.

'This Portfolio of reproductions of twelve costume paintings will eventually form an adequate cross-section of the dress of the highland Indians of Guatemala. To date, forty villages have been sufficiently studied to transfer the collected material to paper in the form of watercolors, from which these plates are made. This material consists of photographs, sketches, and notes made in the various villages. Finally, a figure, or a group of figures is composed in such a manner as best to show the articles of clothing and the manner in which those articles are worn. For the loan of the textiles actually used as models I am deeply indebted to Tocsika Townley Roach. Without access to her collection, which is now in the National Archeological Muse'Jm in Guatemala City, what fidelity of color and accuracy of detail I have achieved would have been impossible.' office.

Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Guatemala City: B. Zadick, c. 1960. Two porfolios each comprising a suite of six full-colour lithographed water-colours (44cm x 34cm), twelve in all, signed on the plate, showing indigenous Guatemalans' traditional costumes typical of various regions of the country. Strikingly energetic depictions. This, the complete set of prints in the series, features costumes from Santiago Atitlan, Solola, San Martin Sacatepequez, San Antonio Aguas Calientes, Coban, and Todos Santos Cuchumantanes (Tomo 1); Santa Maria Chichimula, San Pedro Sacatepequez- San Marcos, San Juan Sacatepequez, Palin, Nebaj, and Chichicastenango (Tomo 2). Crocker ( 1914- 1972), a resident of Guatemala and an architect chiefly occupied with the restoration of Spanish colonial residences for well-to-do or well-connected ex-patriots, took great pains in the observation and recording of details of the various local clothing styles which he captured in a series of watercolours exhibited for the first time in the "Brooklyn Museum from 1943 to 1948 and in Memphis in 1948. These very successful exhibitions (at which none of the paintings were for sale) led to the lithographic reproduction in two portfolios of six designs each, with explanatory notes printed by Byron Zadik S.A. of Guatemala City. These sets have now become rarities to be sought after" (Long). As is evident from a glance at the wearers, Crocker was painting costumes and not people; the figures and their countenances are not 'Mayan' but generic representations, the more to focus the observer's eye on the finely painted particulars of the clothing (Crocker apparently used an unfriendly banker and some others he did not care for as models). These fine, colourful lithographs are accompanied by Crocker's own detailed and informative notes in Spanish and English. The brief biographical note accompanying the lithographs tells us that "Frederick Crocker, Jr. was born in the United States. He is a graduate of the Carnegie Institute of Technology. and practiced architecture in Manila, Philippine Islands. His interest in costumes began while he was travelling in Guatemala in 1940, at which time he turned his efforts toward recording what he could of the enormous mass of material available. These labors were interrupted for three years during World War II, in which he served as a Naval Officer in the Pacific. After the war he returned to Guatemala and continued his researches from his home in Panajachel, on Lake Atitlan. His original collection of costume drawings, from which the. series is adapted, [has] been exhibited in the United States at the Brooklyn Museum and at the Memphis Cotton Carnival, as well as in Guatemala." For an informative and amusing sketch of Crocker's life and career, see J. Long's article, "Pat Crocker, Artist and Architect" in Revue- Guatemala's English-Language Magazine (1 March 2009) which tells all about the boy from West Virginia to whom his parents gave the middle name 'Siddhartha' and who would occasionally introduce himself as (of course) 'Frederick The-Enlightened-One Crocker'.
